George Donaldson - Burlington lyrics

I'm stuck out in Detroit and the sky's a deepest gray A full day in an airport, with another plane delay Well there's flaming hot dogs and coffee stall And people pa** by car But I've only got $10 and I know it won't go far Bound in like a prisoner, with the inmates pa**ing me by All bound for some destination somewhere through the sky James Galway's coming through my earphones he's easing up this pain As I watch another plane delayed by the bloody pouring rain Chorus: And I wished I was in Burlington, with the people that I know And I wished I was in Burlington, down in Lake Ontario I should be playing on the stage at 9 or 10 o'clock With the thunder pa**ing overhead as the plane begins to dock I'm thinking to myself, it won't be long ‘til we're away The plane gets redirected, now it's gone out to L.A Chorus It's half way now ‘til midnight and I finally made it here I'm tired, and I'm hungry and I'm thristin' for a beer The gig has long since been and gone, the moon is shining bright And an empty invitation says come back some other night Chorus x2 Down in Lake Ontario
